electric vehicle manufacturing

Dürr is building an innovative and sustainable paint shop for CEER, the first Saudi automotive company and Saudi-born electric vehicle brand.

The order was placed back in 2023, and the project is currently in the installation phase. Automated guided vehicles will transport car bodies flexibly between stations based on demand in the modular system.

The latest application technology paints the interiors and exteriors of electric vehicles in the same box. In addition, there will be a box for fully automatic two-tone application without overspray. High-tech and sustainability go hand in hand.

Dürr supplies the latest generation of ovens which, combined with electric exhaust air purification systems, save energy and reduce CO2 emissions. The new facility will be one of the most advanced painting factories in the automotive world. [Read more…] about Dürr installs paint shop for ‘first’ Saudi automotive company

Following a major order last year for 23 friction welding cells with integrated robots for the electric vehicle production of a major automotive manufacturer in the US, Kuka has now received a follow-up order for 12 additional cells for a production expansion.

The delivered cells will be installed and commissioned in stages by August 2025. The FSW cells (FSW stands for friction stir welding) with Kuka KR Fortec robots and clamping devices tailored to the welding process will be integrated into production lines for electric vehicles, where they will be used in several manufacturing steps:

The robots in the cells weld battery cases together and, in a second production stage, connect cooling water jackets to the battery cases. Kuka is also responsible for the entire friction stir welding process, including assembly, commissioning, training, and final acceptance at the customer’s site.
